If you're looking for offroad action get smugglers run instead of this lame excuse for a game. It's boring and pointless. Avoid at all costs.
Boring.....ZZZZZZ!

This game is boring....most of the races are the same thing over and over! I have played the one for X-box, and it will let you unlock the moon buggy and the moon level, but the ps2 wont let you! What is up with that?! If any of you gamers out there plan to buy this game.....forget it. Spend your money on something else. If you bought it already, RETURN IT! This game is worthless! If you want a better game, get Midtown Madness 3. That game is way better!

wow! i can't even put into words how bad this game is. initially, i thought it [was bad], but i wanted to spend more time with it hoping that it would grow on me. unfortunately, spending more time playing it only made me despise the developers.
graphically, this game is laughable. it easily could have been a first generation n64 game. everything from the attempted reflection effect on the vehicles to the draw distance of the terrain is terrible.
the bottom line is that i feel like i already spent way too much time with this game, so I'm not going to waste any more going into great detail about how horrible it is. please, for your own good, rent this game before purchasing it.

Dont waste your money

I was very disappointed after popping this game in my ps2. As the graphics are somewhat ok, the general handling and realism are far from ok. When you catch mass air on a jump, you land as if you just jumped a gopher hole. The steering is to tight and the general vehicle selection [lacks]. If you are into realistic games like myself, you would have more fun watching a donkey climb a tree. All and all, I wouldn't even pay the shipping charge for this game.
It's ok, but don't spend too much on it

It's fun to be able to drive around wildly through the mountains like a maniac. However, the mechanics of the game are extremely sloppy.
One thing that bothers me is how it appears that the vehicles have magnets in the tires that stick to iron deposits in the ground. That's the only way I can explain how you can easily drive up a cliff at 90 degrees. It also explains how difficult it is to flip over when you fly off of something, and the fact that your truck isn't destroyed when you jump off of something that is as high as a skyscraper.
The graphics are decent, and the world you can play in is expansive. I got this game used ... and don't mind that, but I wouldn't want to pay full retail price for it. I've played it for one day, then put it down. There may be other games in this genre that are better, as it wouldn't be difficult to improve on this. Still, it can be fun at times, so if you can get it dirt cheap, go for it.
